Re: 2 SCSI Controllers

[Chris Price <cprice missing its to>]

	Well I know that EISA support was a long time coming after PCI
support was already in place. Maybe we are dealing with a nuance of the
EISA bus? Never setup an EISA machine before, but as I said, 2 pci
controllers seem to work 'out of the box' with RH 5.2..

	Sorry I cannot be of more help.
